IN TIME

In Time, the new sci-fi allegorical action thriller, takes off from a premise that's shrewd, fun, original, and (in every sense) timely. In a not-so-distant future, when the middle class has collapsed and the wealth is controlled by one percent of the population, everyone gets to live until they're 25 years old — and from that moment on, they're living on borrowed, or stolen, time. Each person who has passed the quarter-century mark has a digital clock embedded in their forearm (the green numbers appear right on the skin) that registers how much time they have left before they kick off. Once you're 25, you don't age physically, but you can keep living as long as you keep adding to that time clock. Starring Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried
